Chapter 784: Chapter 784: Jackson
Knock... knock... A deep, familiar voice immediately came from inside. "Come in."Danielle slowly pushed the door open. Dragging her feet unwillingly, she stepped inside before quietly asking, "Yes, sir? What can I do for you?"
Although she was speaking to him, her eyes never once lifted from the floor. She simply stared at the polished tiles beneath her shoes.
Seeing that, Asher couldn’t help chuckling. "What color clothes am I wearing?"
Hearing the sudden question, Danielle instinctively looked up.
The moment her eyes landed on him, she saw the familiar green military uniform fitted perfectly around his tall figure.
His posture was straight, his shoulders broad, and the neatly ironed uniform somehow made his already cold appearance look even more imposing.
"You... You’re wearing your green uniform."
Asher’s smile immediately widened. "Oh? So you finally decided to look at me."
Only then did Danielle realize she had fallen straight into his trap. A faint blush slowly spread across her cheeks. She immediately lowered her gaze again.
"Sir, you don’t have to beat around the bush like this. You’re making me feel guilty for no reason."
In reality, she had subconsciously been avoiding looking at him this entire time. Seeing her flustered appearance, Asher laughed even harder.
He casually clapped his hands once before standing up from behind his desk. Thanks to inheriting most of his father’s features, Asher naturally carried a rather cold appearance.
Normally, his sharp eyebrows and indifferent expression made him seem distant and unapproachable.
However, the moment he smiled, it was as though winter snow had suddenly melted beneath the warmth of spring sunlight.
His entire demeanor changed. Instead of appearing cold, he looked surprisingly approachable. Playful. Even a little mischievous. For a brief moment... Danielle became completely dazed.
She simply stared at him without blinking. Then, she suddenly heard him ask,
"So, do I look handsome?"
Without even thinking, the answer escaped her lips. "Yes. You’re very handsome."
The moment the words left her mouth, her eyes instantly widened. ’Oh no... What did I just say?!’
When Asher witnessed her adorable reaction, he couldn’t stop himself from laughing. "If you admire me that much... then just say it openly. There isn’t any reason to hide it."
He continued approaching her leisurely. "In fact... if you have any opinion... you should say it out loud. For example..."
He pointed at himself with complete confidence. "Sir, you’re incredibly handsome."
Then he grinned. "Sir, I like you."
As he continued walking toward her, Danielle immediately backed away. "Stop!"
She pointed at him nervously. "Stop! Stop! Don’t you dare continue saying those cheesy lines!"
Her face had already become completely red. Before Asher could say another word, she hurriedly reached the office door. Turning around, she shouted,
"Sir! You seriously need to stop watching those fictional romance dramas!"
Without waiting for his response, she immediately opened the door and bolted out of the office. Bang!
